It is unclear what the problem is. Need steps to reproduce the problem.

I'm attaching a renamed .csv file - if you change the suffix, I think it should work. (Upload of .csv files is disallowed.)
It's just one record - you'll note that name and email are the only two fields that import successfully. Hope this helps!
- Status changed to Closed: works as designed

First: Whatever the Drupal 7 User System view lists is inconsequential to this module. It expects you to create a well-formed CSV-file, and if the Drupal 7 User System view is not up to the task, you need to fix it yourself.
Second: From the the project's README.md, when talking about the structure of the CSV and how to name the imported fields in the CSV-file:
The fields
name
andmail
are defined by core. To look up custom fields in the user profile and their machine names, navigate to Manage Β» Configuration Β» People Β» Account settings Β» Manage fields.None of there are fields that can be found if you navigate to that page:
- active
- status
- roles
- member for
- last access
If something is not listed on that page, they're not fields in the user entity, but something else, and outside the scope of what this module is supposed to do.
Third: There's a newline in the "roles" field in your CSV-file. The value can't be imported because "roles" isn't a field, but if it has been a field, the newline would have stopped it from working.
To sum up: Except
name
andmail
, the data you're trying to import can't be imported by this module. This is not a bug, but a documented limitation in the module's scope.You need to find another way to import this data. - πΊπΈUnited States bcobin
Thank you very much for the module, the work you've done here and for the quick response! In my case, there are only 60 users to import, so it's a manageable task for me to update each as needed.
Thanks again for your help - greatly appreciated and I'm hoping this will help others as well!
